" Lily B. is a fun character who keeps a diary during the summer. She pursues a friendship with some ultra cool relatives whom she has just found out about. Funny, better than average chicklit. "

" This is a fantastic book about a middle school girl who gets caught up in a family of fakes. But beware, the beginning is slow, so just push past it to get to the good stuff! Aimed towards 5th to 7th grade levels. "

" This book was fun to read, but it didn't have much point. She has some tough times, but they don't make you think very much. It was well written just with out a main point. "

" It was nice that this book was clean (that's getting harder to find these days). And I think younger teens would like it. "
— Melissa, 6/29/2010 -
" This book is a little different than any book I've read. It teaches you that you have to be careful about what you say to people, and that you shouldn't be so easily tricked. I really enjoyed it, but I don't exactly remember what happened so I can't say much on what it's about "
— Jaiden?, 5/13/2010 -
" YOU DEFFFFFFFFF. GOT TO READ THIS BOOKKK~! It's MY ALLLLLL TIME FAVORITE. I NEVER get tired of it! I even stole it from my teachers library because the old one got ripped up! =D "
— Mahin, 1/29/2010 -
" I really like this book 'cuz it teaches you to be who you are and don't follow other people. People you think are cool may be fakes and bad so that is the lesson of this book. "
